It has been quite a while...

My allies and acquaintances alike... How do you fare?

And those I've not yet met... It proves beneficial to come to know your neighbors. Care to introduce yourselves?

[added in later, a little hurried:]

Also, should anyone come across a young woman by the name of Yuna, please alert me at once.

[steelxgaze]

Suoh Takamura, miss. A pleasure.

[thriceshielded]

I am Lulu, and likewise. Have you been here long?

[steelxgaze]

This is my second stay here actually, in total I've been here for about four months.

[thriceshielded]

Your second stay? Are you able to recall your previous one?

[al_bhed_cutie]

She's not here yet. I've been watching!

[thriceshielded]

As have I, but one can never have too many eyes on such a task.

[al_bhed_cutie]

She'll tell us when she gets here though! That's how it goes for everybody!

[thriceshielded]

Yes, I know she will.

[errandxboy]

The name's Fuuma. And you are?

Hm, is this Yuna special to you?

[thriceshielded]

Lulu. It's a pleasure to speak with you again... We were acquainted once. Your ally, Ruruka I do believe, was injured.

And.. Yes. She is.

[errandxboy]

Ah, I remember. Unfortunately, Ruruka is no longer here.

In that case, I'll keep an eye out for her then.

[thriceshielded]

Ah... I'm sorry for your loss.

And thank you.

Leto Atreides 2, of Arrakis.

[thriceshielded]

Pleasure to meet you, Leto. My name is Lulu.

[thriceshielded]

[A pause. A long pause. Then, carefully neat:]

Well enough. And yourself?

[thriceshielded]

How fortunate.

[A similar silence in which she as well has no idea what to say.]
